Team Liquid vs Fnatic Betting Tips – Fnatic Can Trouble Liquid at 1win Private Club #2
Team Liquid and Fnatic meet on Monday in the upper bracket quarterfinals of 1win Private Club #2. Although neither team has dominated this year, Liquid are slight favourites due to their stronger roster and better individual players. Despite this, Fnatic's recent form—with a 70% win rate over their last 10 games—suggests they could challenge Liquid and keep the match close. While Liquid historically lead in head-to-head games, both squads have something to prove, making for a potentially tight contest.

Team Liquid vs Fnatic Betting Predictions

Both teams have failed to win much this year, and they’ve both been competing mainly in lesser events. Still, despite not showing much more, Liquid enter this game as favourites, as a team that appears stronger on paper and should have a higher ceiling.
All that, however, proves very little, and considering Fnatic have been showing some signs of life of late, with a 70% win rate over the last 10 games, it is likely for the Black & Orange to push Liquid to their limits.
- Team Liquid appear stronger
- Fnatic are in solid shape
- A closer game is not unlikely

Team Liquid Have More to Prove
Team Liquid have been largely underwhelming this season, having not made any noise in bigger events. They have, however, found some success over the last two months, with a runner-up finish at Stake Pulse Beat I and a gold medal from iBUYPOWER Masters fl0m's Mythical LAN at the end of September.
Since iBUYPOWER Masters FML, Team Liquid have featured in only one event, Stake Pulse Beat III, where they reached the quarterfinals with wins against BBL Esports and JiJIeHao and defeats against 100 Thieves and the eventual champions, Ninjas in Pyjamas.
While the more recent roster changes seem to be working, Team Liquid have not been hugely successful and still have a lot more to prove.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| October 16 | Stake Pulse Beat III | Ninjas in Pyjamas | 1-2 (L) |
| October 13 | Stake Pulse Beat III | JiJieHao | 2-0 (W) |
| October 13 | Stake Pulse Beat III | 100 Thieves | 1-2 (L) |
| October 13 | Stake Pulse Beat III | BBL Esports | 2-1 (W) |
| September 28 | iBUYPOWER Masters FML 2026 | Wildcard | 2-0 (W) |

Fnatic Are in Iffy Form
Fnatic have won just one tournament this year, ESL Challenger League Season 52: Europe Cup #1 in July. Since then, they’ve found some success but nothing to write home about.
Earlier this month, Fnatic placed fourth in Stake Ranked Episode 4. They’ve since made it through 1win Private Club #2 qualifiers, and finished Stake Pulse Beat III in the quarterfinals. In the latter event, Fnatic defeated Sashi Esports and HOTU but lost the first clash against HOTU and the playoff match against HEROIC.
Results-wise, Fnatic haven’t accomplished much, but they have been showing decent form, going 7-3 from their last 10 outings. While that stretch does not include any notable victories, Fnatic are at least in decent shape.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| October 16 | Stake Pulse Beat III | HEROIC | 0-2 (L) |
| October 14 | Stake Pulse Beat III | HOTU | 2-0 (W) |
| October 14 | Stake Pulse Beat III | Sashi Esports | 2-0 (W) |
| October 14 | Stake Pulse Beat III | HOTU | 0-2 (L) |
| October 10 | 1win Private Club #2 | HOTU | 2-1 (W) |

Verdict
Team Liquid are expected to win on Monday, as they appear to have a higher ceiling, fielding better individual players. But all that has not helped them look significantly better than Fnatic of late, which raises the question of whether Liquid should be expected to win.
With a better win rate on Cache, Ancient, and Anubis, Fnatic are in a fine position to do some damage on Monday and force a close game.
